Minneapolis Residential HVAC Installers- and the Value of AC

[Joseph Lee]

1) Does anyone have any recommendations for residential HVAC installers that do work in Minneapolis? We have a few furnaces to replace and AC's to install (possibly- see below).

2) What does everyone estimate the value of central air to be in a upper-medium-end rental in Minneapolis? Do you project $x more in monthly rent or see it as something that gets your more interest but not necessarily more rent? For perspective, the units are 2 BRs in a 1960's side-by-side duplex getting $1700/mo, so they're not cheap units from a rent perspective. We haven't had a problem getting tenants, but I'm wondering if it's worth it to get AC installed while we replace the furnaces.

Thanks for the input!

I have a great one, he does furnaces, AC's and mini splits. He is not licensed in Minneapolis but is licensed in other parts of the state. If the furnace is already there then adding AC does not require a permit, and he does everything by code anyway. He is anal about quality, and best prices I've seen. If that works for you, send me PM and I'll share his contact. I've used him at least 40 times ;)
